The 1990s were a remarkable decade for sports cars, and one standout model is the 1992 Ferrari F40 that will be up for auction at RM Sotheby’s Monterey. This particular Ferrari F40 is one of only 60 models delivered to the United States in 1992, out of a total of 213 units designated for the US market, adding a touch of exclusivity to any classic car collection lucky enough to include it.
Displayed with just 9,447 miles on the odometer, this 1992 Ferrari F40 is in outstanding condition. Originally sold at Monterey Ferrari and certified by Ferrari Classiche to have its original engine and gearbox intact, the car recently underwent a major service in February 2022 to ensure it remains in top-notch shape for its new owner.
Exceptional Ferrari Heritage
This exceptional Ferrari F40 from RM Sotheby’s comes with a complete toolkit, owner’s manuals, and documentation including the Ferrari Classiche Red Book, window sticker, maintenance booklet, and service invoice, making it one of the most comprehensive Ferrari offerings from the 90s. Built to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Ferrari’s first model, the 125 S, the F40 continues to captivate enthusiasts with its impressive design and specifications.
The Ferrari F40 was crafted for competition with a race-ready steel tube-frame chassis, four-wheel double-wishbone independent suspension, coil-over Koni shock absorbers, and four-caliper ventilated disc brakes. Designed by Leonardo Fioravanti and aerodynamically honed in Pininfarina’s wind tunnel, the F40’s body features paneling made of Kevlar and carbon fiber, reducing weight by 20% while enhancing structural rigidity.
This celebrated Ferrari F40 not only shines aesthetically but also holds mechanical integrity with its numbers-matching certification. The presence of a toolkit, owner’s manuals, factory fix-a-flat kit, window sticker, warranty booklet, Ferrari Classiche Red Book, and recent service invoice underscores the completeness of this offering. A true gem for supercar enthusiasts and collectors, the Ferrari F40 stands out as a timeless addition to any top-tier sports car collection.
